Title: Spidery Mage
Post by: uok on December 07, 2015, 07:08:16 am

Hello people, found this incredible forum yesterday so yeah, I'm new  :)
I wanted to learn pixel art to make a graphic adventure game, so I've started training about four days ago and this is my second humanoid character ever. Inanimate objects come naturally to me but things that should be living are really hard to pixel, that's why I made this gif for practice and really looking for some pointers.

Hope you'll like it.

Looks nice but head movement looks kinda weird. Also why is the shading on the right side changing?

Oh I was going for a flapping robe effect, but couldn't do it in the end. Now I'm working on a piece with a lot of shadows and lights to find out what can I do actually. For hours... Without breaks... So tired  :'(

Also thank you Nr. 2698, I can't see very clearly right now so missed your post, sorry. I've got ways to go to resemble loom though  ;D
